The Young Man and The Mule.

Liveryman Fox has on hand number of
mules, which, with due regard for their
health, he sends out each day for air and
exercise, under the chapefonage ofCharles
Nixon, a supple young lad of apparently
seventeen or eighteen summers. Wednes-
day we eSpied near the public pump, Mr..
Fox, young Nixon and two mules, one Of
which Nixon was trying to mount and
the mule was trying to not let him, with
odds in favor of the mule. With true
journalistic instinct which despises not the
day of small things and scents an item
afar off, we tarried while to see the
show. Nixon at last managed to climb
the mule, and with Fox for rngmaster
tie circus began, with small but deeply
interested audience. Finally the word
was given, and with heels tightly
clasped under the mules breastbone and a
firm grip on the rein, the plucky rider
laid his course down Salem street, due
west. His craft. however, failed to mind
the helm and drifted to windward till OPP
posite samuel Carney's, and WAS there
seized with an uncomfortable desire to ex-
anime something the other side of Carney's
fence and made a straight bolt Tor the side
walk. The sudden change OF course was
too much for the rider and he was thrown
overboard-clasping the mules neck for
moment, as il 10th to part with him, and
then lying prone upon the ground while his
muleship skipped lightly over his body
and mace a bee line for the stable, uplift-
ing his voice as lie went in melodious
bray that caused the windows to rattle
and set the reporters teeth on edge. With
our digestive organs we'll braced with
hearty laugh we started home for supper
with the conclusion firmly rooted in our
mind that Tho lnTin i. a srraat bird

Defrauding the Farmers.

Many of the New Jersey farmers are
again being yictimlzed by the promissoIy-
note scheme, which has been worked in
many different forms during the last ten
years. This time the confidence man has
a kind, benevolent face, and he is an au-
thorized agent of the Audubon Society,
whose laudable object is to prevent the
slaughter of birds. There has been a
wholesale butchery of the feathery tribe
in this and neighboring counties. A reg
ular syndicate, worked in the interest of
New York millinery jobbing house, has
placed many thousand early morning
singers ander tribute for fashions fancy.
For some time they have been get.
ting up an agitation against the killers OF
the birds Of bright plumage. The Audi
bon Society, which has several local
branches in this State, has been securing
pledges from individuals who have prom
ised never to kill the birds for decorative
purposes and to discourage the wearing OF
them An agent has obtained number
of good signatures to the pledge, and these
are turning up regularly at local banks rs
promissory notes. Jehu Stokes, farmer
of Burlington County, has been asked to
pay note OF $40 which bears his au-
thentic signature He has made an aft
davit that he has not signed a promissory
note for over year. Two similar cases
are reported from Gloucester County.

Fatal Accident.

Saturday afternoon, at the farm of Wad-
dington Ridgway, near Hancock Bridge,
\. Harris Baker, of Elsinboro, met with an
accident that cost him his life. lie was
feeding threshing machine which was
threshing herd grass and got on top of the
cylinder to make some change in its run
ming. In stepping back he stepped on the
feed board on which was some loose hay
which slipped under his weight and his
foot went into the cylinder which was re-
volving at high rate of speed. His foot
and leg were terribly lacerated. It took
nearly half an hour to extrcate him from
the machine, but though conscious he ut
tered no word Of complaint. He was una
bic to rally from the shock and died the
same night despite the attendance of three
physicians.

Along the Railroads.

The West Jersey Railroad and branches
report their gross earnings for February at
81, $50, an increase of st3,543 compared
with the corresponding month Of 1886.
The operating expenses were sSl, 40 an
increase of So. S2G, and the excess of eX-
penscs over earnings was s4lS0. For the
two months ending February IS the gross
earnings were si54, 391, an increase of sci,
ST7 compared with the corresponding
period Of last year; operating expenses,
1874, 553, an increase Of $50, 264: and net
earnings, SO, S44, a decrease of st4, 81.
The proposition to build a branch road
from the West Jersey Railroad to the oys-
ter beds at the mouth of Maurice river is,
it is stated, taking definite shape. The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company has, it is
said, agreed to build the branch road il the
residents along the line will grant free
right Of way and enough ground on which
to erect stations, etc. Vice President
Sewel and several of the directors will
meet the citizens and a delegation from
the Mllville Board of Trade at Port Eliza
beth to-day to discuss the matter.
One day last week n train on the Della
ware River Railroad was delayed in n
rather novel manner. Having crossed the
bridge Just below Woodbury. the engineer
saw runaway coal car coming down the
grade at u pretty lively rate. The train
was run backward and kept out of the way
of the ear until the rising grade of the
other side checked it, and then The train
was started ahead again pushing the car
before it. The car had been left standing
on the siding in Jno. c. Tatum's coal yard
at Woodbury. and the blocking in some way
getting from under the wheels the car
had started on the down grade jumped the
switch to the main track and gained speed
as it went.

From salem.

The people within the corporate limits of
the county scat appear to have accepted
the new order Of things in the liquor line
with a good grace. The hotels closed
promptly at twelve o'clock on the day of
the expiration of licenses, and removed
their stock of liquors from the bars.
Fords and Schaeffers will, at lea st for the
present, continue to furnish entertainment
for man and beast, while Mr.. Garwood has
not yet, we understand, decided what he
will do. Donnelly X Waterman, livery
men. have leased the Garwood house yards
and stables. Claysville just out OF the
city limits on the Woodstown road, is now
the seat of the rum business, quart
house having been opened there last week,
and another talked of.for this week. These
places will probably work their own cure
in short time. The one already opened
